Abstract: Satisfactory molding of a spout in the upper inclined opening edge of a glass container is effected by heating the spout molded portion of the upper opening edge to soften it, premolding the heated softened portion by raising it from the inside of the glass container by the premolding member of a spout premolding device, and finish-molding it by a spout molding device. The spout molding device supports the molding device above a glass container setting position for vertical and horizontal movements, and outwardly substantially horizontally moves this molding member, which is put in the glass container, so as to outwardly push and deform the upper opening edge of the glass container in such a manner as to mold a spout. The path of movement of the molding member is controlled by a fixed cam to finish the spout into a desired shape.

Abstract: An improved aerosol chamber (32) for an ultrasonic nebulizer (30) which prevents relatively large medicament droplets from being inhaled by a patient. The chamber (32) has a housing (56) formed from a polycarbonate resin and is generally cylindrically shaped with a spherical top surface (38). The chamber includes an air inlet (39) formed in the top surface (39) and an aerosol outlet (40) formed in a side surface. A centrally located mist tube (42) extends coaxial from the air intake downardly past the aerosol outlet (40). A longitudinally extending slot (45) is formed in the mist tube (42) facing the side surface of the housing (56) diametrically opposite the outlet (40). The slot (45) extends from a lower edge of the tube (42) upwardly toward the air intake (39). A geyser baffle (43) is disposed at an angle within the mist tube (42) above the slot (45) to deflect larger droplets away from the slot (45). The baffle (43) includes an upper edge (47) spaced from an adjacent inner surface (49) of the mist tube (42) to define a relatively small gap (50) to allow inlet air to flow through the mist tube (42). The air flow entrains nebulized medicament droplets, flows through the slot (45) and through an annular space between the mist tube (42) and the housing (56) to the outlet (40). The annular space creates a cyclone effect which causes larger droplets to condense on the interior walls (55) of the housing (56).

Abstract: Apparatus and a method for generating a multi-level halftone image (104) from a digitally sampled continuous tone (contone) image (101). The apparatus includes a control circuit (140), a preference matrix (150) having as its matrix elements addresses of a plurality of look-up tables (160) and a plurality of look-up tables (160) in the form of a look-up table stack (155). The control circuit instructs the preference matrix to select a specific look-up table from the look-up table stack in a pre-defined manner. The selected table is used to convert an intensity value (102) into each multi-level pixel value (106) in the halftone image. To accomplish the conversion, each look-up table contains a quantized one-dimensional transfer function (165') having as an input the magnitude of the intensity value. The transfer functions are automatically generated such that the sum of the derivatives of the transfer functions equals the number of pixel values in a halftone cell. The magnitude of each intensity value is mapped into an output level by the quantized transfer function as one of a plurality of available levels. The resulting output level is assigned a pixel location in a halftone cell (103). The look-up table selection is repeated for each element of the preference matrix such that the magnitude of each different intensity value in the contone image is mapped into a corresponding halftone cell to generate a complete multi-level halftone image.

Abstract: In a photographic film cassette manufacturing apparatus, a perforator (7) for providing a long film (15) with perforations and a cutter (21) for cutting the long film into individual filmstrip to be contained in the film cassette are driven synchronously with transport of the long film. A magnetic recording head (19) for recording data on a magnetic recording layer of the long film is driven in synchronism with the perforator or the cutter. The long film is transported in a first direction before being cut into the individual filmstrips. In cooperation with the cutting, the trailing end of the individual filmstrip in the first direction is held to be displaced from the long film transport path, and moved in the reverse of the first direction so as to secure the trailing end to the spool. A cassette shell (3) consisting of a pair of shell halves is temporarily assembled by mating the shell halves together while containing a spool inside the shell halves, and thereafter opened to an extent that confining elements still confine the flanges of the spool. The trailing end of the filmstrip is inserted into the opened cassette shell and secured to the spool. Then, the shell halves are mated together again and the spool is rotated so as to wind the filmstrip into the closed cassette shell.
